Confirmed Signing with Link: [WPG] Jets sign Patrik Laine to ELC

[Romang67]

Surprised they decided to sign him, doesn't seem like a future NHLer.

It's all about the draft position IMO. Had Laine gone at number THIRTY-two, he would have been released already.

 

[Daximus]

Welcome to the team Laine!
Laine, Ehlers, Scheifele, Connor, Trouba, Morrissey, Helle and Comrie... boy the future is looking real bright!

 

[Beerz]

Term is horrible.

 

[FLYLine27*]

Term is horrible.

Indeed. I could see a buyout in a year or two.

 

[Rorschach]

Before he hands the cash to his parents, he's going to the bank, get it all in 20s and make a cash phone and a cash throne.

 

[MardyBum]

ROY candidate here. If he doesn't play his way onto the top PP in Winnepeg before November I'll be %100 surprised.
Jets fans, does he play with Little/Wheeler? Or Schieff?

When Little got injured. . Feb 18th, Scheif Wheeler and Ehlers were put together right then or not long after, for the rest of the season :

Scheif : 33p in 26 games
Wheeler : 25p in 26 games
Ehlers : 12p in 16 games (puck to the eye).

I'd imagine they'll keep them together and see how they play to start the year, so Laine likely starts with Little and one of Perreault/Connor/Stafford/Dano.

We really have no clue what the bottom 9 will look like.

Stupid to sign an unproven rookie to such a long contract. Hope jets know what theyre doing

Are you sure you want to make this your answer?

 

[CorgisPer60]

A 3 year contract before he even plays a game. smh

Damn decent of him tbh.

Good drafting and signing by the Jets. He's gonna be a stud.

Is that an Ohio thing?

 

[Paradise*]

I'm sure he'll have a good year playing in Winnipeg's top 6. That shot on the PP will be huge.

 

[Primary Assist]

Any chance Laine and Scheifely play together? I see those two ****ing **** up, playing fast and big hockey and scoring a bunch of goals

Happy to quote this after the bust

Add top 6 league wide point getter Wheeler to their right side along with Big Buff gaining the zone.
